No Pencil Support

Doesn't work with Apple Pencil

Works well with Google Drive. But beware of sync conflicts!

This editor works fantastic with cloud services like Dropbox and Google Drive. I haven’t found a markdown editor with that functionality elsewhere. CAUTION: Be wary of saving your files in GTW if you haven’t synced them with any new changes to the Google Drive file, e.g., if you updated them on another device. GTW silently saves the file and overwrites non-synced changes. I almost lost hours of writing before I caught this and found a file backup.

OneDrive sync doesn’t work

OneDrive remote files sync does not work.

can't sign in to onedrive

i purchased this app specifically because it's suppose to work with onedrive directly without the need to download the file. but i can't even sign in to onedrive. after entering my email adreess to sign in to onedrive and tapping "next" (presumably to enter my password), the sign in process crashes and brings me back to the "manage remotes" screen. just wasted my money. i was able to link my google drive. but even there, the results were disappointing. i attempted to open a text file and it wouldn't even open that, throwing an error message.

Disappointing.

ONLY plain text!

Does not open any format but plain text. Why doesn’t it say so!?

Great app with good combination of features. Though a little pricy for a simple app, there aren’t others that provide this ability to simply open and view/edit text over the network. Besides, I love that there is no in app purchase or subscription or ads. Needs dark mode.

Let’s me quickly edit files directly on remote drive, manually save them or exit them without saving if I want (other editors that I’ve tried, except GoCoEdit also by this dev, aren’t easy to manually save and all seem to auto save on exit with no option to disable). Thanks for fixing the problem with Google Drive.

Works perfectly with one drive!

Setup was a breeze. Started updating and creating notes within 5 minutes. Interface is clean and simple, not a lot of bells and whistles but this app gets the job done.

Not there yet

This is close to being a very nice app, but there are a few problems making it virtually unusable for me. 1. Can’t adjust line-wrap column. This is fine for Markdown with no line breaks, but if you get Markdown already having line breaks at say, column 80, it looks terrible. 2. There are some GUI bugs where text or buttons will fall slightly off-screen on my iPad, or move on top of other GUI elements. It’s worth noting GoCoEdit by the same developer doesn’t have these problems and is now my primary Markdown & text editor. It doesn’t have a nice simple view with text centered on the screen and wide margins the way GTW does, but it’s far more usable.
